VirtualPC images with Windows XP and IE
This is one of the very rare occasions where Microsoft actually did something cool. A couple days ago I needed to test one of my web apps with Internet Explorer 8 and just for giggles with IE6 – although we’ve dropped support for that dinosaur a while ago. Remembering my previous experience with IE8 and my inability to go back to 7 all too well – yes don’t laugh at me, I should have known better I know – I was preparing to fire up VMWare and create two XP Images, one for each browser version. But imagine my surprise when I discovered that Microsoft actually offers pre-configured ready to launch Windows XP VirtualPC Images for every possible IE version for free.
Be advised that these images expire in a couple of months but Microsoft seems to make new images available shortly before the old ones expire.
